Syntax highlighting on twitter bootstrap

29.3k Views Asked by At

I am trying to highlight some syntax using Google prettify but so far, its not working.

<link href="prettify.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="prettify.js"></script>

<body onload="prettyPrint()" bgcolor="white">

<pre class="prettyprint">
  <code class="language-css">
  // Some source code

    class Foo {
      public int Bar { get; set; }
    }
  </code>
</pre>

Is there a solution to make this work without messing too much with the pre tag already in bootstrap?.

EDIT: for twitter bootstrap 2.0.x, it works fine with 2.1.x

Use the those 2 files instead of using the method describe in the doc.

This works for me

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<link href="css/bootstrap.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="prettify.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="prettify.js"></script>
</head>
<body onload="prettyPrint()" bgcolor="white">
<pre class="prettyprint linenums languague-css">
// Some source code
class Foo {
    public int Bar { get; set; }
}
</pre>
</body>
</html>

Not sure why it wasn't suggested to modify with:

<script>
    // Activate Google Prettify in this page
    addEventListener('load', prettyPrint, false);
    $(document).ready(function(){
        // Add prettyprint class to pre elements
        $('pre').addClass('prettyprint');           
    }); // end document.ready
</script>

After linking to the 2 files prettify.css, prettify.js add this code to your footer

<script>
// @prettify
!function ($) {
  $(function(){
  window.prettyPrint && prettyPrint()   
  })
}(window.jQuery);
// #prettify
</script>
